Loading Sophia Bush data from Instagram. Please wait... @sophiabush : You all know how much I love data, and some of the most telling, for me, centers around the gender wage gap. We talked about this on #EqualPayDay, but we need to work to highlight the truth far more often than just one day a year.

So. Stats? On average, women in the U.S. are paid 20% less than men. And that disparity is even greater for women of color. Black women make 64 cents for every dollar made by a man. Latinas make 54 cents on the dollar. So that means those women are paid 38% and 46% less than white men, respectively.

We are past the time to put an end to this. And to do that, we have to keep awareness up and pressure on! I’m thrilled to be teaming up with @abbywambach, @whododatlikedat, @swincash, @cattsadler, and @SecretDeodorant for its latest campaign, #IdRatherGetPaid. Together, we are shedding light on the wage gap.
